A Sweet Escape!

comfy bedssimple check-innice perkconvenient dropbox
The room included comfy beds and it was very clean. I appreciated it so much! Check-in was super simple as I received a door code via message. I used the indoor pool. It was a nice perk! Checkout included a convenient dropbox. Made my departure easier.
The furniture showed some wear, a very minor distraction.

the rooms lacked proper blackout curtains, so light pollution was a consideration.
